Testing the new North Face V-25000 prototype there huh?

Road will usualy be plowed to Chilliwack Lake park. No winter logging going on so the gravel road will not be touched. However it is pretty low-elevation and is often driveable with 4WD even when not plowed. Dont skid off the road, though, cause you will end up sinking in the lake.Chains? You gonna do a winter ascent of the north face of Bear or what?

is that your new bong prototype?

CDN Rockies is dry, cold and clear right now.

He still rock climbs too, remember he fell off the wall of his castle buildering and broke a leg a few years ago. Reinhold Simpson??

My favorite is BigWallBigBallsRocky and his trained squirrel posse. Remember, like he pm'ed to me, "it's all A1 when you have trained squirrels to make the next bomber placement for ya."

Eh, Hugh Herr can climb 5.13 with no legs below the knees. Tommy can still climb 5.14 minus half of one finger. I bethe gets a Stealth, carbon Fiber and Titanium prosthetic complete with hook to help clipping, and micro-lighter for sparking a J at the crux.

Cirque of the Unwipeables?

Generally you won't find motor sports in the Games, and how are these guys going to sink bolts without a power drill? How are you going to have sport climbing without bolts? Ain't gonna happen. The routes would be bolted beforehand the same way they use powered drills to build the chairlifts and ski jumps.

I hear she took Tommy's severed finger up thee with her and left it in a finger lock so he can boast that he's always got a bomber jam.

fuckin raw log exporting.... I got a raw log pokin the turtle head out right now!!!!!!!!!

unless it one of those things where two negatives make a positive and everyone else in the world but joe and wick died...

Climbing to a pounding rhythm lets you time your reflexes for speed climbing. So Techno speed metal jazz punk opera is ok as long as it got BEATS and BASS IN YOUR FACE!!!

1) I 'ave heard (from un-named gear store that returned all theirs but is worried about lawsuits) that the Smiley's/Omega knob, because it doesn't fold away, can open the gate on your biner... 2) another vote for not tying off. 22's suck. I only have one 22, for making Abalakovs in funky ice. 17s are bomber for most placements and for thin west coast dribbles over granite slabs you may want "a bunch of" 13s and 10s too. 3) Charlet screws are nice but the Turbine is kinda kluged. I wish they made a screw with the knob right on it. 4) BD Express works great.Grivel 360 has advantages but no one can tell me about long term durability of the wire crank. if your scrw gets frozen in on super cold ice it looks to me like you might bend the wire torquing on it getting the 360 out...?? hope not. 5) worth carrying a Snarg, spectre, DMM ice-hook or two for west coast type mungy frozen mud in cracks. it aint great but its better than no piece at all, cause it MIGHT hold a fall.

what about retrosaurus chopping some bolts off a giant britney? i think the pix on the main page should all be of pub clubs.

"Pope and Dru and Rurp: you guys too cool for Tacoma? " Fine company you got me in Dwayner, a bag-crapping fool and his avatar. Oh yeah, tip #1, never play pool with a guy named Fast Eddie unless you go by the handle of "Fats". I AM to cool for Tacoma but also unwilling to drive 6 hrs to get there. Yesterday I went up to Cheakamus Canyon and high-centered my truck in a drift. then i went into Vancouver and saw a slide show on "Prodding The Void" aka the recent FA of the south face of Siula Grande by a bunch of my friends. no beer though, it was a dry show cause they couldnt book the ANZA club.

I think the Taliban would like Jesus cause he had long hair and a beard and hung out with a group of men. Whadda you mean Christian perspective? which of the 39 flavours? From an alien perspective, is human life intelligent or not? discuss over

Hey, if you take a communion host (which is kind of like an uncooked tortilla) and then fry it or bake it or however they make those tortilla chips and add some nacho spice would that make it into a mysticnacho??

still, if you had to choose between simpson and wickwire, choose simpson. cause all the bad shit will happen to simpson whereas it always happens to wickwire's partners. just like if you go to everest with bonington someone in your party will die.

No more shit smearing? what do you do then - put it in a package and mail it to afghanistan or something?

I got to play with both of these yesterday. I found the rage to be a lot heavier than the axar. rage shaft is solid (or quite thick?), so the weight is centered lower in the tool, too axar has light shaft and weight concentrated in head. I liked the axar much more. rage has better pick though. clearance is about equal. spike on rage slightly better. i would go with the axar if i had to choose.
